Pin Files To Top In SharePoint Online Document Library

In this article, I would like to share the steps to pin files to the top in a SharePoint Online Document library.

  • It is one of the features in SharePoint Online modern libraries, every document library has multiple documents, and using this feature we can pin the important documents.
  • We do not need to scroll down to a document library to find the important documents.
  • This feature is not available in the classic experience. We can highlight the important files and folders by pinning them

Here are the steps to be followed for pinning files to the top,

Step 1. Open the SharePoint site.

Step 2. Go to the SharePoint site contents and open the document library.
